Nabble's relationship to Rhelp? Nabble is an ongoing annoyance to the regular users and to the list moderators. It's web display format deceives naive users (who usually fail to read the Posting Guide as they were directed)  into thinking everyone sees what they see, and so they often fail to maintain the context of the discussion. Many regular contributors simply ignore the content from Nabble-originated postings.

Nabble lies. It is not an archive. I periodically get notices telling me that my old posts are going to be dropped. The real archive is: https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/

Nabble does forward messages to Rhelp and if a message passes the spam filters and the human moderators, it gets posted. Nabble then strips off the footers from the returned messages.

If you want to complain about Nabble not living up to your expectations, you should contact them. We did not ask them to mirror Rhelp.

You are expected to know how to control your own mail-client. Expecting us to educate you on the basics of computer use is unreasonable.
